There's another user in my post here that's experiencing the same thing in Fedora: https://discuss.kde.org/t/window-glitching-when-snapping-to-left-or-right-in-wayland/10107 Thanks for the video. Are you able to successfully side-tile one of the affected windows using the Meta+Left or Meta+Right shortcuts? I turned wayland back on to test... when it happened again, I tried Win + Left Arrow or Right Arrow it was non-responsive. But when I Did Win + Up it started working again. And then thereafter, did Win+Left or Win+Right work properly? Yes, it started working again after I did Win + Up And since then, has it continued to work as expected? Or did it break again? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #6) > And since then, has it continued to work as expected? Or did it break again? It will work temporarily and then eventually the issue will occur again either with the same or different window. Ok, thanks. Would be good to know if it happens in Plasma 6 once it's released in two weeks. Is this still an issue in 6.1? Created attachment 174321 [details]
Window artifacts
After updating to KDE 6 this issue was resolved. I am experiencing the same or similar issue on KDE Plasma 6.1.5. The visual distortion is a bit different - the previous screen contents within the new snapped window field is "locked in", any new screen activity is "added" to the window (kind of like mouse trails, but persistent), and I can no longer move the window around using the mouse. Using `WIN+UP` snaps the window to the top half of the screen, but then exhibits the same issue just on the top of the screen. I am able to restore window functionality by maximizing it from the application panel. I can reliably reproduce this with **any** window by: 1. Maximize window 2. Press `META+LEFT` or `META+RIGHT` to snap to left or right side of screen Screenshot posted above.
